Joining us this episode is Delphonso, administrator of Spookyfort on the Bay 12 Forums, and one of the organizers of the archive activity earlier this summer brought about by the Imagr fiasco.
Hey there friends – we wrap up the first 2023 session by checking in with our listeners and shooting the breeze. It’s been a fun year so far – thanks for joining us on the way!
Kristen and Drew join us for chaos and conversation as we negotiate technology like a blindfolded dwarf walking up the ramp of that mother ship in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Welcome back to the Roundtable. This episode, we get the perspective of a DF user who dove in after the 50.x release. Willow joins us to discuss beginner strategies, capturing a hydra, and tabletop RPGs. Enjoy!
We originally planned to talk about megaprojects this episode, but we’ll have to do that next time since we had such a good time going off topic. Hope you enjoy!
Note: The mid-rolls were generated by Chat GPT based on information about my new fortress and me prompting it to rephrase that info in Tolkien style. For example:
rephrase in epic tolkien style:
Urist Quakeprestige is Militia Commander of Newtower. He is an adequate Macedwarf who feels that “You can always rely on your family withen everything else falls away”. Urist disdains self control, is frail, and quick to despair.
Urist is close friends with chief medical dwarf Mebzuth Budsabre – a hateful quarreler who values power. Mebsuth is a competent diagnostician, and an adequate surgeon, bone doctor and suturer. Mebsuth declares “I am well”.
Mebsuth’s friend Minkot Fencedfountain is patient, resilient, and has good focus. These traits make her an ideal fortress manager, which she will surely accomplish while also being the fortresses most competent cook. “An artisan, their materials and the tools to shape them” exclaims the 70 year old manager dwarf.
These seven dwarves are renowned as the elders of Newtower of Showing. Praise them with great praise.
This week we focus on our three fortresses we are currently running. We didn’t plan to do so, but that’s the way it shook out. Thanks everyone for listening!
